As children, we all saw our mother or grandmother wearing a pin on the inside of their clothes. But how a pin works against the evil eye and damage was discovered many generations ago. Even in ancient times, people experienced how this tiny amulet, like a lightning rod, catches the negativity around and encloses it in the infinity of its closed structure. Evil can no longer escape or harm. Many people put a pin on themselves, not really believing in its magical properties. This is not enough to protect against the evil eye.
What is an evil eye safety pin?
An ordinary small pin is reliable protection against damage and the “vibes” of ill-wishers. Instead, and often at the same time, they wear a red thread on the wrist.
The pin later became a safety pin; initially it was simply a protective pin, although outwardly it was different from today’s. The ancient Egyptian lands still hide burials with magical pins inside - made of gold or silver.
It is believed that the shape of the amulet plays a role: only a small safety pin with a round tip is suitable for protection. She collects negativity coming from other people, evil eyes - intentional or not. This clot of black energy rushes around in circles like a squirrel in a wheel, gradually losing strength and exhausting itself. Therefore, the pin is periodically cleaned with a spell or replaced.
When is it necessary to update the power of the amulet?
Since we are talking about energy, which tends to change, we must remember that the energy power of the pin can also be exhausted. A pin made of gold or silver precious metals tends to turn black due to negative influences. In such cases, it is recommended to keep the pin in salt water and then clean it.
It is recommended to cleanse during the full moon and let the hairpin dry on the windowsill so that moonlight falls on it. The pin needs to dry overnight. In order for the amulet to gain new power, it must be spoken again.
How to choose a pin for an amulet
Only a talisman with the appropriate composition will prevent bad things and bring good things. Either gold or silver will definitely suit everyone. But, before deciding on a personal protective pin, let’s consider what places these materials occupy in the magical element.
From gold
This pin may not be suitable for everyone: there are people with a so-called “gold allergy”. If, while wearing gold jewelry, you noticed melancholy, apathy, and loss of strength, you should not mess with this metal.
For others, a golden pin can change beyond recognition: make them a strong, attractive, self-confident person. According to legend, gold prolongs life, fills the body and thoughts with energy, and establishes a subtle connection between man and the gods. Therefore, such talismans can often be seen on successful people.
The metal itself absorbs information about the wearer, and the pin also collects all the damage around it; therefore, she is quite capable of turning black from “hard work.” Usually it is not recommended to throw away a golden evil eye pin; it is better to clean it with a spell.
Made of silver
In the magical world, silver is an “innocent”, pure metal. Wearing it can free the head from unnecessary, worldly things and open intuition or even a mystical gift, develop and strengthen the spirit.
Silver is very often used for talismans: it absorbs and destroys negativity. Everyone knows about “charging” water with a silver spoon.
This metal cleanses space, home, and human energy. This does not require special rituals or long waits: silver simply works. It gradually darkens due to natural processes. Therefore, if a silver pin turned black too quickly, the wearer avoided damage, perhaps even illness: the amulet took the blow.
It is better to wear a silver amulet on the chest, ideally in the center of the solar plexus.
How to make a talisman yourself
We buy a new safety pin, always made of metal. The amulet against the evil eye can be worn in plain sight if you decorate it according to inspiration - “the whisper of the soul.” In sewing and other decorative goods stores you can buy everything that your intuition tells you.
Usually to decorate pins you take:
- Beads made of stone, ceramics, wood;
- Mini-plates with your initials or name;
- An icon depicting your zodiac;
- Decorative flowers, ribbons, bows;
- “Eye of Fatima”, cross and other elements of religious themes.
You can connect and sew the decor to the pin using ordinary threads or fishing line.
Pins or any black amulets decorations are prohibited.

Pin spell to attract money
On Sunday morning you need to buy a pin, and on the night from Sunday to Monday read over it three times: “The moon looks through the window, and the pin collects silver from it.” At the same time, it is not at all necessary to wait for the star to appear in the night sky.
The pin charmed in this way should be wrapped in velvet cloth (preferably red) and placed in a wallet, in which to be worn for a week, then carefully removed and placed in some secluded place.
It is important to understand that no magic can bring the average person millions, but rituals can easily attract luck and good chances.
How to wear an evil eye pin
The evil eye pin in its modern form appeared a couple of centuries ago. The protective functions are activated in two cases: if you wear it from the inside out with the tip of the hairpin (head) down, or if you decorate it and wear it in plain sight. The decoration will attract glances, at the same time “collecting” bad ones.
To enhance the effect, you need to choose the right place for the amulet:
- For a man - for any clothes, closer to the heart;
- For a woman - if it is a dress or skirt - at the hem, trousers - fasten to a blouse/jacket and preferably below the waist;
- For a child - for a hat, for example, a pompom; outerwear from the front side;
- For pregnant women - in the solar plexus area, pointing down from the heart;
- During lactation - on the bra or the inside of clothing, on the left, with the clasp downwards;
- For the bride - closer to the hem or at least below hip level;
- For the groom - a pair of crossed pins at the heart or between the shoulder blades;
- For entrepreneurs - similar to the groom’s amulet.
You can keep a pin on your home clothes, in the door frame or curtain.
Be sure to use safety pins if you are expecting an event with many guests, especially a children's party. Before the christening, be sure to attach a pin to your and your baby’s clothes, to the stroller or crib.
Where to wear an anti-damage pin
Wear a pin amulet if you plan to:
- To work;
- To a public place;
- For any event at home or outside;
- To the funeral.
The same pin cannot be moved across different clothes or objects. Each dress/blouse has its own amulet.
If someone removed your pin or it accidentally went in the wash with your clothes, re-spell it or replace it.
